THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.
A Small Band LaborinR in q Noble
Cause.

Less than thirty persons attended the an
nual meeting Of the fourth subdivision Of
the Associated Charities, held last night In
Hamline M. T.. Church. Mr.. @. b. Beall
occupied the chair, and Mr.. l.. G.. Hunt at
tended to the secretary's desk. The secre-
tary in his report stated that the six dis.
tributors and sixty.fve visitors were active
and efficient. More than forty persons
were provided with food and fuel, many OF
The organization has also been active In
detecting and exposing persons who tried
to defraud the generous public.
The treasurer, Mr.. q. e. w. Sharretts,
reported that at the beginning Of last year
there was balance on hand OF 1871 .97.
He received from dues $6S and from contri-
buttons $40, total of $409.97; the expen-
ditures during the year were .$249.3s lesv-
ing a cash balance on hand Of $16059.
Rev. DR.. Naylor then addressed the
meeting. lie said 1t was the smallest con-
gregntion he had ever had In that church,
and he found II difficult TO say anything to
the faithful few, who doubtless knew all
about the organization and its objects.

for the brute does care for its kind. The
grandest works In the history Of the world
were referred to as evidences of somebody
having done something for somebody else,
and he eaid that the most beautiful
and symmetrical life Is that which has
least Of self in II. The names which will
live In history are the names OF those who
have lived for others. The doctor indorsed
the association In very strong terms, aud
said II answered q question asked 1000
years ago, "Who 10 my neighbor Y' He
condemned the philanthropy that looked
only after the soul, and neglected the
bodily needs Of the poor and distressed.
Giving through such an organization was
preferable to relieving applicants on the
Judgment Of an inexperienced individual.
He had been deceived, and no doubt many
others had also. He concluded most In.
teresting speech by asking Gods blessing
on the Associated Charities.
The election OF officers then took place,
with the following result: President, Chas.
B. Beall; vice president, s. II. Bond score
tary, L. +. Hunt; treasurer, q. L. W. Shar-

At an informal meeting OF the board OF
directors, held after the adjournment OF
the public meeting, vote OF thanks was
awarded DIR. Naylor for his address, and
another vote OF thanks was given the trus-
tees OF Hamline for the use Of the church.

A NEW KIND OF JEWEL.
A Minera1ogist in Searching for Plat
inum stumbles Upon n Fortune.

81 Louis sGl0be-Democrat.
Some years ago Edison, the electric wiz
ard, was convinced that platinum existed
In North Carolina. He sent William Earl
Hidden, an accomplished mineralogist,
in search Of 1t. Prof. Hidden little
knew at the time how full OF re-
would be. He could not find the de-
sired mineral, but he found something far
better. Being In Alexander county, quiet
part Of the state, many miles from q rail-
way, he was directed by Mr.. j. A. Stephen
son to gem-bearing ground, and, looking a
little more narrowly, found some Of the
gems. He purchased some land, returned
TO Edison, and reported his vain quest Of
platinum, then came back to- North Caro-
his mine. Sinking shaft in a
opening larger until specifically the
mine presented the aspect Of stone quarry.
Out Of this rude pit In the earth were taken
unnumbercd gems-one hitherto unknown.
To this Mr.. j. Lawrence Smith, of st. Louis,
an eminent scientist, gave Hidden's name,
and "liiddenite," the equivalent Of the
diamond in value, became instantly the
fashion. Its tender tinted green crystals,
Its intense hardness, and Its new beauties
when cut, were only some of its charms
From the day of its discovery to the present
II has been hopeless task to supply the
demand for 1t. Every Hiddenite found ia
already purchased long in advance.
But, strange as Is this flashing green mira
Gle OF the earth, the place OF Its birth is still
stranger. The laborers who are working
In the mine handle their picks with the
greatest care. They are on the watch for
"pockets." Possibly for an hour the dig
ging goes on and no "pocketn is struck.
Presently the pick goes into an opening;
with tender fingers the earth is partially re-
moved, and finally the miner feels with his
hands every portion OF the walls OF the
opening. 1t may happen that his search
Is in vain, but 1t is oftener the
case that bis fingers touch little crystals
that are so tmbedded in the sides OF the
pocket that their points project outward.
They are carefully picked out. Perhaps all
are heryls, perhaps there are dozen kinds
OF gems, or yet again 1t may be that there
are only Hiddepites. Sometimes gems worth
hundreds Of dollars are thus taken from one

ALEXANDRIA MATTERS,
Itoms OF Interest Gathered for tho
"RepubIican's" Readers.

It is understood that Billy Williams, the
supposed murderer Of Oflcer Julian Ar
mold, will be tried at the next criminal term
of the corporation court, which Is the first
Monday in January. 1t is generally believed
that the commonwealth will not be able,
In view Of the small amount Of evidence In
their possession, to establish his guilt, aud
that Williams, like Kidwell and Curran,
will be turned over to his friends, with q
verdict from country jury Of not guilty.
About 800 colored men, women, and
children paraded the streets last night In
honor Of the election of their candidate,
Mr.. l.. w. Corbett, to the legislature.
Large fires were started In different Sec
tions Of the city. The crowd finally con-
cluded their march In front of the store OF
Mr. Corbett, where, after repeated calls, he
came forward and delivered short but
well-worded address.

THE OLD SOLDIERS.
It 10 Recommended that They Surrender
Their Pensions while in the Home.


Their Tensions While in the Home.
Gen. Sheridan, president OF the board Of
commissioners OF the Soldiers Home, has
made bis annual report. The number Of
inmates OF the home on the rolls Sept. 80,
1887, was 091, Of which number 934 were
permanent and 81 temporary. The balance
Of the permanent fund on hand Oct. was
S1,G07507. The sum Of $293, ,22264 was
expended last year, $65,000 being for new
buildings. The recommendation is made
that all inmates Of tho home who have
served less than ten years in the army be
required to surrender their pensions while
in the home those who have a record OF
from ten to fifteen years. service TO give
up two-thirds OF their pension, and the
men who were in the army from fifteen to
twenty years to give up one-third. These
recommendations are made because Of the
immense cost Of the home and Its compare
lively small income.
